Specialized Technology and Tools at North County Endodontics

Technologically advanced devices, therapies, and technology we offer at North County Endodontics include:

• GentleWave- Traditional root canal therapy involves using files and other such tools to remove a tooth’s infected or inflamed inner pulp tissue. The GentleWave Procedure involves removing the affected tissue with fluids and sound waves. These fluids and sound waves can reach areas traditional tools can’t always reach, allowing for more thorough cleaning and disinfecting.
• EdgePRO® offers the most advanced laser-assisted endodontic technology available for root canal treatment to assist your Endodontist and Dentist in saving your tooth and restoring your oral health by removing the inflamed and infected tissue, debris and bacteria that is creating the source of your pain.
• Mora Vision Real-Time Stereoscopic HD 3D Video- While using this highly advanced equipment, our endodontists wear 3-D glasses to view a flat-screen monitor instead of looking directly into a microscope. With a small camera angled in the patient’s mouth, endodontic procedures can be performed that require difficult-to-access angles using this advanced technology. 
• High Power Microscopes- We have invested in the most powerful LED microscopes available, including Zeiss and Global microscopes. Our scopes are integrated with cameras for live viewing and recording and for capturing photographs during treatment.
• Ozone therapy- Ozone gas injections and ozonated water can serve as a useful irrigant due to its microbial properties and ability to reach areas in a tooth that may otherwise be difficult to access.
• Nitrous Oxide- We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to pediatric patients and to those who have anxiety or fear about undergoing endodontic treatment. Nitrous oxide can help a patient remain calm and relaxed during a procedure.
• Headsets and Mounted TVs- To make the experience of undergoing treatment as easy and comfortable as possible, we offer patients distractions, including noise-canceling headphones and entertaining programming.
